Publisher's Summary

A former football star and one of Chicago's top prosecutors, Assistant U.S. Attorney Cade Morgan will do anything to nail a corrupt state senator, which means he needs Brooke Parker's help. As general counsel for a restaurant company, she can get a bug to the senator's table at one of her five-star restaurants so the FBI can eavesdrop on him. All Cade has to do is convince Brooke to cooperate-and he's not afraid to use a little charm, or the power of his office, to do just that.

A savvy businesswoman, Brooke knows she needs to play ball with the U.S. Attorney's office-even if it means working with Cade. No doubt there's a sizzling attraction beneath all their sarcastic quips, but Brooke is determined to keep things casual. Cade agrees - until a surprising turn of events throws his life into turmoil, and he realizes that he wants more than just a good time from the one woman with whom he could fall terrifyingly, irresistibly in love.

What did you like best about Love Irresistibly? What did you like least?

The witty banter in the book is well written and well performed. What I didn't like is the fact that the premise of this series is characters associated with the FBI and the US Attorneys office. The first in the series used the premise well for an excellent Romantic-Suspense. The following 3 editions of this series are pretty much straight contemporary romance with very little, if any, suspense/mystery/action in the plot. A bit boring for my taste.

Would you be willing to try another book from Julie James? Why or why not?

Not sure - she started out strong with a really good romantic suspense - but then it pretty much became straight romance. Several hours of angst and why we can't be together is a drag to me - very predictable storyline and ending.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Karen White?

Yes - she is very good.

Was Love Irresistibly worth the listening time?

Mixed feelings on that. I can't say it isn't well written and narrated - just a bit boring. I think I am done with the series as it has become what does not interest me - straight contemporary romance.

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed this author when she added action/suspense in the mix. I'll be looking to see if she does anything like that again in the future.

Great, entertaining and the performance was well done as well. My only issue is that I wish the author had mentioned the previous characters a little more. But it wasn't there story, so.... No matter, as I noted, I am ready for the next installment. When Ms James?

Frankly, I just started this pre ordered book due to Jordan's story. What great lines. If you are doing anything that requires concentration while listening to this book, you will miss the humor. I have replayed the first 3 chapters as I would miss a good line and have to go back. I am laughing my head off.

Who was your favorite character and why?

too soon to tell, but so far, everyone introduced has a great fun line or lines.

Which character – as performed by Karen White – was your favorite?

Ms White has certainly gotten better with this series. I thought Jordan's brother would be the best story, but I could not get into the swing of it. Listening to Jordan story was fun!! Now this story, and Ms White has got a winner here so far.

After the dismal previous book, I took a chance and got this one and have no regrets. Brooke Parker is the legal counsel for a restaurant company, and the US attorney needs her help. Being a smart business woman, Brooke agrees to play ball. The chemistry between her and Cade, the US attorney, is undeniable. Of course things don't go as they plan, the twists and turns adds to the fun. I enjoyed this one, definitely worth a credit.

First, I liked the first 3 books in this series but there has been so much time between them and book 4 I forgot so many of the characters from the past. Second, I think this lacked ALOT of the depth the previous stories had.Third, I had been a fan of Karen White but her male character sounded too much like a relative of Thurston Howl III from Giligans Island which tended to detract from the romance of it all. That being said, it's an ok listen if you re so inclined. I might have liked it more if the male character's voice was a little better. Sorry....

Fun, witty characters who draw you into their lives and steal your heart . A well flowing story with a narrator who performs each character exquisitely and keeps your attention throughout the story. Two workaholics with issues to resolve and important choices to make to decide what happens next in their life. I'm so looking forward to listening to the next book in this incredible series!

This is one of the author's more intricate stories surrounding the Assistant US attorney and a legal counsel. They meet during an investigation when Cade seeks Brooke's help. Sparks fly instantly and burn the characters defenses as the story unfolds. There is the side story of Cade's father and his abandonment issues that show up in a few places but without making the story heavy. A great book for an quick, fun and easy read.
